Night Trains® season is a special Holidays tradition at the Twin City Model Railroad Museum. Night Trains runs from October 2024 through February 2025 with additional bonus nights noted below. Note: We will be closed on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day

What is Night Trains? The museum’s collection of model trains of all scales and toy trains of yesteryear come alive throughout the Museum (Sorry, no real trains to board and ride on!). Night Trains Season magic begins as the lights are turned down and the buildings and street lights glow warmly, setting the scene for specially lighted models of operating vintage passenger trains. The make believe towns are buried in snow and holiday decorations are set up all over the towns. Uniquely decorated trains will run on the layouts and special holiday-only layouts will also be on display.
